The Official Blog of Mackerel

Thank you to everyone who came out to the Meetup last weekend. I hope everyone had a good time. The event report will be coming out soon, so be sure to keep a lookout for that.

Last week we finally released Anomaly Detection for roles, our new feature that uses machine learning. The feature is scheduled for an official release in May, but until then, you can try out the Anomaly Detection for roles feature as part of our free promotion. Be sure to give it a try and let us know what you think.

We are currently offering a free promotional campaign!

During the feature’s beta period, Anomaly Detection for roles can be used for free (with no additional charges). This feature is for ‘Standard’ and ‘Trial’ plans. Be sure to take advantage of this free period and try out the new feature in a variety of different environments. We’re looking forward to your feedback!

Please note, following the feature’s official release scheduled for May, environments that have Anomaly Detection for roles enabled will automatically switchover to incur charges.

check-log plugin now supported for log read timeout

With the release of go-check-plugins v0.28.0, the check-log plugin is now supported for log read timeouts. Up until now, if a timeout occurred while a log was being read, it would sometimes result in an error. With this release, improvements were made and timeouts during log reading can now be handled normally.

If the command configuration in the Mackerel agent configuration file is not set to array specifications (for character string specifications), there is a possibility that timeouts can not be handled normally depending on the environment. Therefore, it is recommended that you set the command configuration to array specifications.

We’ve heard from quite a few companies that have had operational issues with the introduction of AWS. This seminar will introduce application management tools to help you automate as much as possible and ensure that AWS is on track! We’ll go over the best practices for managing AWS with Hatena's Mackerel, SIOS Technology’s SIOS Coati, and Sony Network Communications' Managed Cloud Portal.
